If you watch the Chinese TV these days, you might think the biblical deluge had repeated itself in modern Cathay, without the Noah’s Ark.

After the great drought that lasted half a year, it started to pour for months here and there and towns and villages became rivers and lakes. The Dam, the 3 Gorges Dam that is, is blocking 40,000 cubics of water every second.

The last similar thing happened in 1998, when over 1,400 died and millions had to be evacuated. And strangely, there were many protests against the dam project.

MyT started out as a debate forum and was a unique success. Despite its snail speed and endless trolling, there was a lot of enjoyable debate. That debate system was nearly perfect. Comment Page, to see what was going on and who got involved at a glance Archieves that made it effortless to retrieve certain comments with time stamps etc, reference and cross reference that are so important to make sensible and long discussions. Then after two major face-lifts(one with Onesh..t and then this Beta version) most of those lovely, effective features are cast away. I don’t understand why.
